Re: Need help automating a task

And if you have Photoshop and Bridge, just open the folder in Bridge, click on the New Folder icon up the in upper R corner, call it what ever you want (CW or CCW, maybe, if rotation is the concern). Then click on the icon in Bridge that allows all you images to display as a page of them would on a lighttable, you may already have this setup - apprently it's default mode. Then paw through all your scans that need whichever rotation, holding down whichever key it is that allows you to highlight and add as you go (in the Mac OS, it's the Apple (Cmd) key). As you finally approach the new folder and have selected all the desired images, grab one of them and drag it to the new folder. The rest will follow.

Then Select All and hold down that same key and unselect the two folders, grab the images that are still selected and drag them to the other folder.

As for eliminating the black, that's another problem entirely. The crop tool seems to be still the only tool for that task. I've tried a number of other possibilities, like using the Select command to select the black by color, and then hitting delete, which could be automated into an action, but that does not crop, unfortunately, and you run the risk of accidentally deleting anything within the black range inside the image.
